Hot Water Beach Water Taxi

Water Activities Geothermal
Visit Hot Water Beach - Te Rata Bay by water taxi and watch steam rise from the lake edge, the result of a hot thermal spring trickling into the lake water.

The sand on part of Hot Water Beach heats up to 86 degrees, hot enough to cook a meal ‘hangi-style’ beneath the surface. The water taxi transports you to and from the secluded beach.
